Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Most people on this list will know that antibiotics have side effects. They kill good bacteria along with the bad ones. So we must take probiotics to get the intestinal eco-system back into balance. Someone on another list sent this helpful hint on how best to take them. Hi, There's a scientist, Nigel Plummer (?), in England who did testing while people were taking antibiotics. The best way to prevent problems is to take the probiotics about mid way through the time between antibiotics. If the antibiotic is taken every six hours, say, then you would want to take the PRObiotic around hour three. His test results say that, yes, most of the probiotic is killed off but if this mid-dosing is done, the bad microbes like yeast never get a foothold in the digestive system.
